"When one digs down, we eventually arrive at "I read a blog post that said it was real fast and stuff.""

That doesn't show that there was too much hype. That just shows there is enough popularity for an inexperienced developer to find it on their radar.

If it was overly hyped, you'd find a lot of experienced developers blogging about how they were horribly mislead and that node doesn't do what it advertises.

Which amounts to "I don't like javascript, I don't like things that don't work the way I like to work, and I love strawmen."
